Can namespace names be hidden? The Apr 95 spec says no in section
basic.scope.hiding (3.3.6) (only classes and enumeration names can be
hidden), but the Borland C++ Builder VCL libraries
include class member declarations like:

class A {
 int ns1; // ns1 is a namespace name.
  };

Is this non-compliant?

Should a compliant parser support this?
